Hi.
The ibdata1 always growing is not a ReadyNAS problem, but a MySQL problem, maybe triggered or made worse by LogAnalyzer way to commit queries.
There is plenty of talk online about it. But it seems that there is no easy solution to reducing its size.

If you don't use it, I suggest removing LogAnalyzer and mysql-server.
Usually the shares (e.g., btrfs subvolumes) are mounted on /var/ftp, so if the system is working normally you will see the shares (which are not actually in the /var file system).
If you enter "mount" do you see the shares on the list? Something like
/dev/md127 on /var/ftp/Music type btrfs (rw,noatime,nodiratime,nodatasum,nospace_cache,subvolid=268,subvol=/Music)
If so, deleting files in there will delete the your data (and won't help your problem).
